Why it helps
This activity helps to develop pre-writing skills by tracing different types of stencils.
For this activity, you can use many different types of stencils to trace.
Provide the child with different stencils and have him/her trace inside or outside the stencil.
The child can also finger-paint inside these stencils.
Helpful Tip:
If the child has difficulties with bilateral hand use, you may want to tape the stencil to the surface the child works on.
